This paper proposes a novel reversible image authentication method that requires neither location map nor memorization of parameters. The proposed method detects image tampering and further localizes tampered regions. Though this method once distorts an image to hide data for tamper detection, it recovers the original image from the distorted image unless no tamper is applied to the image. The method extracts hidden data and recovers the original image without memorization of any location map that indicates hiding places and of any parameter used in the algorithm. This feature makes the proposed method practical. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Recently, the Z-Map model has been used widely to represent the three dimensional geometric shape and to achieve the cross-section and point evaluation of the shape. In this paper, the CNC cutting planning and simulation modules for product with three dimensional geometric shape are realized based on the Z-Map model. The realized system has the various capabilities related to the automatic generation of tool path for the rough and finish cutting processes, the automatic elimination of overcut, the automatic generation of CNC program for a machining center and the cutting simulation. Especially, the overcut-free tool path is obtained by using the CL Z-Map models which are composed of the offset surfaces of the geometric shape of product.

Map rendering, positioning, database managements are key elements of location based services. Google map and GPS (Global Positioning System) have become a very popular solution for map rendering and positioning, respectively. They are very effective and yet free of charge. However, they cannot be used for an indoor location based service system. We cannot render a building drawing with Google map, we cannot determine a moving object's position when it is indoor. This paper introduces our web services of rendering drawings, indoor positioning, and multimedia contents up-loading and playing so that any programmers can use them in developing indoor location based service systems. In order to experimentally show the efficiency of our web services, we have built a location based contents displaying system for museum visitors with them.

This paper describes a novel stereo vision based localization of free parking site, which recognizes the target position of automatic parking system. Pixel structure classification and feature based stereo matching extract the 3D information of parking site in real time. The pixel structure represents intensity configuration around a pixel and the feature based stereo matching uses step-by-step investigation strategy to reduce computational load. This paper considers only parking site divided by marking, which is generally drawn according to relevant standards. Parking site marking is separated by plane surface constraint and is transformed into bird's eye view, on which template matching is performed to determine the location of parking site. Obstacle depth map, which is generated from the disparity of adjacent vehicles, can be used as the guideline of template matching by limiting search range and orientation. Proposed method using both the obstacle depth map and the bird's eye view of parking site marking increases operation speed and robustness to visual noise by effectively limiting search range.

Unlike a typical small-sized robot navigating in a free space, an autonomous vehicle has to travel in a designated road which has lanes to follow and traffic rules to obey. High-Definition (HD) maps, which include road markings, traffic signs, and traffic lights with high location accuracy, can help an autonomous vehicle avoid the need to detect such challenging road surroundings. With space constraints and a pre-built HD map, a new type of path planning algorithm can be conceived as a substitute for conventional grid-based path planning algorithms, which require substantial planning time to cover large-scale free space. In this paper, we propose an obstacle-avoiding, cost-based planning algorithm in a continuous space that aims to pursue a globally-planned path with the help of HD map information. Experimentally, the proposed algorithm is shown to outperform other state-of-the-art path planning algorithms in terms of computation complexity in a typical urban road setting, thereby achieving real-time performance and safe avoidance of obstacles.

Gouge-free tool-path generation is an important issue in mold & die machining and researches on cutter interference avoidance can be found in many articles. One of the various methods is construction of tool-offlet surface or cutter-location (CL) surface on which the cutter-center point (CL-point) locates. Provided that the CL surface is represented in a suitable form, cutter-interference avoidance can be performed without the burden of computing CL data for every cutter-contact (CC) point. In the paper, various methods of constructing a CL surface in the z-map form are presented, where z-map is a special form of discrete nonparametric representation in which the height values at grid points on the xy-plane are stored as a 2D array z［i,j］.

In this paper, we suggest a virtual machining system that can simulate cutting forces of ball end milling at the stage of part design. Cutting forces, here, are estimated from the machanistic model that uses the concept of specific cutting farce coefficient. To this end, we need undeformed chip thickness which is used for calculating chip load. It is derived from the Z-map data of a CAD model. That is, chip load is the height difference between the cutting tool and the workpiece at an arbitrary position. The tool contact point is referred from the cutter location data. On the other hand, the workpiece height is acquired from the Z-map model of a CAD data. From the experimental verification, we can simulate machining process effectively to the slot and the side cutting of ball end mill.

The most commonly used navigation systems work on Windows CE platforms. Linux-based embedded terminals have price competitiveness, because Linux is a free operation system. In order to develop map services on Linux-based embedded terminals, there were a number of technical hurdles that had to be resolved. Since the Linux-based embedded terminals is a low power, low cost, and small size platform with low processing capabilities, we must have developed the spatial database engine that minimize the number of disk accesses. We solved problems that are the processing korean language and the lack of debugging tools on Linux. In this paper, we has developed the spatial database engine and user interfaces on hand-held terminals based on embedded Linux for implementing the location based map system With view of this implementation results, we confirmed the possibility of using our embedded linux terminal as telematics terminals or navigation terminals.
